first embodiment
2. First Embodiment
[0074]Subsequently, the first embodiment will be explained. In the past, a flash is generally used as illumination when an image is captured with a camera. However, it used to be difficult to perform special illumination other than the flash with only the flash. With image processing, a desired pattern, a texture, and the like can be applied to an image captured by a camera. However, although a photographer who uses the camera can see the result of image processing, a third person and a subject may not see the result of image processing.
[0075]Accordingly, there are disclosed techniques for causing a projector to project a graphic image onto a subject who is photographed. In these techniques, a position to which a graphic image is to be projected is recognized using a marker and the like in advance, and the graphic image is projected onto the marker. In the above techniques, however, the graphic image is projected onto a position recognized using the marker and the...

3. Second Embodiment
[0113]Subsequently, the second embodiment will be explained. As described above, in the techniques in the related art, a graphic image is projected onto a position recognized using a marker and the like in advance. Therefore, there is an issue in that a graphic image may not be projected onto a position directly specified by a user on the display screen which displays the captured image. Accordingly, an information processing apparatus 20 according to the embodiment of the present invention has been created in view of the above circumstance as one of issues taken into consideration. According to the information processing apparatus 20 according to the present embodiment, a desired graphic image can be projected with intuitive operation performed by a user.
[0114]A hardware configuration of the information processing apparatus 20 will be explained with reference to FIG. 19. FIG. 19 is a block diagram illustrating a hardware configuration of the information processi...
third embodiment
4. Third Embodiment
[0151]Subsequently, the third embodiment will be explained. As described above, the technique is disclosed in the past to use a projector to project a graphic image onto a subject to be photographed. Further, another technique is disclosed to project a graphic image onto a desk and the like, detect a direction of fingers and shapes of hands, and cause an information processing apparatus to perform predetermined processing. However, it is desired to not only perform processing according to a direction of fingers and shapes of hands but also detect a certain movement of a subject with respect to a projected graphic image and execute processing in association with the detected movement.
[0152]Accordingly, the information processing apparatus 30 according to the embodiment of the present invention has been created in view of the above circumstance as one of issues taken into consideration. The information processing apparatus 30 according to the present embodiment can ...
